JCreator is the development tool for every programmer that likes to do
what he does best: programming. It is faster, more efficient and more
reliable than other IDE’s. Therefore it is the perfect tool for
programmers of every level, from learning programmer to Java-specialist.
JCreator provides the user with a wide range of functionality such as :
Project management, project templates, code-completion, debugger
interface, editor with syntax highlighting, wizards and a fully
customizable user interface.

With JCreator you can directly compile or run your Java program without
activating the main document first. JCreator will automatically find the
file with the main method or the html file holding the java applet,
then it will start the appropriate tool.
JCreator is written entirely in C++, which makes it fast and efficient compared to the Java based editors/IDE's.

JCreator is a powerful interactive development environment (IDE) for
Java technologies that provides more power at your fingertips than all
the ordinary editors. What makes JCreator a cut above the rest? Just
look at what JCreator can do for you:
